Publisher Description

“I found myself underlining and highlighting things to remember for my own career. It’s also entertaining—a great combination. Tim’s words encourage you to keep dreaming.”--Reba McEntire

“Tim was a cast, crew, and audience favorite on The West Wing. He’s been at the center of some of America’s most iconic film and television. Damn Glad to Meet You is a fascinating, hilarious, and often very moving inside look at his extraordinary career.”--Aaron Sorkin

A “damn good” fun and revealing memoir from the acclaimed Hollywood actor, Tim Matheson

 
For the past seven decades, Tim Matheson has been an on-screen favorite in Hollywood. In his debut memoir, Tim takes fans behind-the-scenes of his illustrious career, and reveals what it was like to learn from and work alongside the greats, including Lucille Ball, Dick Van Dyke, Steven Spielberg, and Aaron Sorkin.

An Entertaining Biography

This biography was a surprise to me. I got a sample and ended up buying it and read it voraciously. It is surprising in that it is not the self-aggrandizing book by a successful working actor that I expected. Instead, it is a candid, honest look behind the scenes of this on screen likable actor’s trials, tribulations, successes and failures in the entertainment industry and in his personal life. All are told in a matter-of-fact manner which makes Tim Matheson very real and as likable in reality as his TV and movie characters have always been. Be well TIm Matheson. I was always a fan, now I’m a big fan.
